Tonight’s @craftybeergirls.bsky.social is in the recently refurbed Craft Beer Co, Limehouse (now the Clement Attlee). It’s a great pub and I can’t remember the last time I saw three west coast beers in the same pub - bloody love it 💗🍻

Stop 3 is The Baring, Hoxton(ish) - need the beers here after a 45 minute walk! Came here years ago but don’t really remember. Good keg selection and Five Points XPA on cask as well as a decent bottle/can selection.

First stop today was The Clement Attlee nr Limehouse (Craft Beer Co). Good refurb and the usual good and wide selection of beers.
Stop two is Pretty Decent, Victoria Park, an ok space but very loud in here. Beer choice not too bad.

Just found out some depressing beer news today! The Lowlander in Covent Garden is no more 😢. Still a pub but owned by the same people that took over the Exmouth Arms so it’s highly unlikely to be worth visiting anymore.

Great @fullersjohn.bsky.social (free) tasting of Fullers Vintage Ales in The Admiralty tonight ranging from 2025 to 2006. 2014 was my favourite version but the 2025 was pretty good too. A bit of light relief after #borefts2025

It's not a pub.

It's a pop up within a department store.

Can we stop calling these temporary things pubs, and taking trade away from pubs?

What a time to be alive.

Greggs opens first pub in UK city as food and drink menu confirmed

The fully-stocked bar will also feature a Greggs-inspired cocktail menu.

Stop 6 is Delfts Brouwhuis where the boys decided to take a flight! A decent range of styles here

Stop 5 is Doerak which has a solid Belgian / Dutch list but nothing really interesting on draft so I’m treating Peri and Oberon to a Rochefort 10 as it’s great value at €6 and you can tell how delighted they are 🤪

Stop 3 was Locus Publicus which is a small chain of bars in Netherlands. Moved on to ‘more sensible’ beers with the delicious Troubadour Magma and Obscura.
Stop 4 is Het Klooster who have a pretty decent tap list.
Delft is turning out to be an excellent beer town.

Stop 2 was ‘t Proeflokaal where choice was quite good and included the Kees 1850 10year - as if we didn’t have enough impy stouts yesterday!
